Scale / 1/4 scale Ka-3

« on: May 19, 2006, 14:15:38 PM »

Hi there,

First of all, thanks to Alan for the 3 views !

So, after my 1/5.5 Grunau Baby, it's time for a new scale ship !
This time, the Ka3, 2.5mtrs wing span.
Let's glue some wood !

As usual now for me, I've started with the "front box" made with 3mm plywood (from the local DIY store...)

Hi Alan and everybody !

The photos for the glide-In are now online !  :
http://gliderireland.modelisme.com/cork2006.htm

Just my photos, so, not a lot, was too busy flying !  
If you have more photos and want them on the site, don't hesitate to contact me !

For the videos, my desktop have crashed... So, not for the moment, you'll have to wait a bit !

For Alan, sorry, the b25 is still not ready ! I still have to find a decent solution for the wings !    Not a lot of work done on this one so far, but the Ka3 is moving forward pretty fast !    
I'll post photos soon...

Enjoy the photos of this lovely day !

Hey Joe,

Just saw the video !
Very nice, and your mate was not sooooo drunk !  
Nice flight, and nice music... Ok, joking here...  

Alan, your Pb may come from Quicktime. Reinstall it, and that should be fine.
